I live in Bergen/Norway with my family, but we spend as much time as possible in my husbands hometown Reckingen in Switzerland where the flat is located. This is a lovely spot. The village is very authetic with old timber houses and small farms, and also situated in the midst of a most spectacular alpine landscape.
Since we live in Norway we are not always around, but are always avalable on internet or phone. My parents in law are always around and will be of assistance when needed. And when we are around we live on the top floor of the house and then we always like to stop by to say hi to our guests.

We had a marvelous time and were very glad we stayed in Anna's flat in Reckingen. It's the first floor of an old traditional Swiss house. The plaque on the outside of the house and an inscription on the beam in the main room both date the house to 1702, and the house across the road is dated to 1617. The flat has been updated inside, of course, but retains some 18th century quirks such as low ceilings and doorways (pay attention if you are over 190cm) and squeaky old pine planks for the floor. The bathroom is spacious with nice shower. The kitchen is very spacious and well equipped with lots of utensils and an electric stove + oven (with only a microwave missing to seem like home). The flat is ideal for a couple with one to three children, with parents' bed in the main sitting room and a children's bedroom with bunk bed.
It's in the center of the village, with views out various windows of the mountains, a covered bridge over the river, and old wood houses in the nearby lanes. Out the kitchen window one can watch Alpine choughs (black birds) hunting for bugs in the neighbors' exterior walls. The walk to the train station is about 400 meters. The village has lots of cross country ski trails and a groomed sledding hill in winter. The next town up the valley has a small beginners and toddlers downhill ski place, though they seem to speak German only.
If Anna and her family happen to be there, they are very friendly and nice also.

Overall Anna was very helpful and responsive when we communicated with her regarding our stay. The apartment is in a charming, traditional swiss building and the village is beautiful, well located and also very well appointed. We were quite pleased with our experience.

We have stayed twice now at Anna's place, once in summer and once in winter, and both have been fantastic. The small town is lovely and quiet and everyone is very friendly. The creamery just down the road has excellent milk, cheese and yogurt; the bakery, meat shop and grocery store are all great as well. We also discovered this trip that there is a post office in town and if you are into singing, the church is lovely and has great acoustics. Cross Country skiing just over the bridge is wonderful and the rental is only about 1 kilometer away in Gluringen. Downhill ski a short train ride away at Fiesch was amazing and if you get the right ticket (20 CHF) return, the price is taken off of your lift ticket. George met us shortly after we arrived and was very friendly and helpful. This is a great place to stay in the Swiss alps!

Perfect! We've had such good airbnb experiences in the past but this was excellent. Exactly what we wanted and appears as picturesque as the photographs. We stayed as a couple in the winter so there was heaps of room and heaps of snow. The mountainside is lovely and you can use the home as a base for day trips or cross country ski from the doorstep or do what we did- very little at all except take in the beauty and walk to the village bakery. Anna and George were super accommodating and helpful on all accounts. The only point to be aware of is some ceilings are quite low but even though my husband bumped his head a few times it is still his favourite place amongst our travels. Our only regret is not booking a full week! Next time. I'd love to return.

This is such an amazing place to stay. Simple, rustic, but very nice. It's in such a great little village- just what we were hoping for to have a nice quiet getaway. It's an easy drive down to get to Zermatt and the glacier. There's also a great thermal bath spa in the area as well. We really enjoyed our stay and even extended to spend an extra night. Couldn't recommend it enough.
